Conscious of the present suffering and injustices experienced by our immigrants and with an awareness that our current United States immigration policy is morally unacceptable, the Sisters of Charity, BVM proclaim and affirm our commitment to comprehensive #immigrationreform.
Back to where it all began in 2018. The legacy of Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt, BVM continues. WORK. WORSHIP. WIN. #marchmadness
Memories of Sister Jean and her relationship with @RamblersMBB will forever be a part of college basketball.
Despite her passing last year, it’s clear her legacy of love and kindness will live on as well.
Celebrating Sister Jean with Sister Jean!
A life of faith, service, and basketball. luc.edu/sisterjean/livestrea…
We celebrate the life of Sr. Jean. She was a woman of prayer, a dedicated educator, and a bearer of hope who loved her BVM Community. She saw God present in all that surrounded her and trusted in His goodness.
To us, she was a kindred spirit, our friend, our sister.
